How true, Shankar mahadevan !!

I remember Shankar mahadevan saying these words when he came as a judge in the recently concluded chote ustaad.

That is true anamika.

The reported post with offensive language is trashed, it seems the problem we had in II is not over, members are requested to report them asam.

It is true that each singer has their own strong areas.

^ I think you might be right, Summer-ji! Drama does help the audience remember you. Also, the channel people want to keep you in more too.

Shankar Mahadevan is a class in himself, what a musician..!

Yes, what Shankar had said is right!! I have heard the same thing being said by judges on music reality shows in Kerala - song selection is very important, and always select a song that suits your voice and your limits, and not something that exposes your weaknesses... 😃

Shankar was absolutely right but the song choice is done by Channel and mentors and the particpants are like slaves until they have some clout with the channel so they have to sing what the channel wants.

Yes, the channel makes the final choice, but then they select the song from a list of preferred songs for the contestant. They do that just to make sure that the same song is not sung by another contestant.. They do the same for DID too, so that no two dancers dance for the same song on the show.. So if the contestant is smart enough to make a good list of song selections before giving it to the producers, there shouldnt be anything to worry about... 😃

SM is really a genius.. and what he said is absolutely true and correct to the core..
